Hitting the Slopes: A Fight Against Warm Weather in Saxony's Ski Resorts
- Competition on ski slopes in Saxony reaches its climax
Things are taking a warm turn on the Alpine ski slopes of Saxony, causing a bit of a predicament for winter sports enthusiasts. Despite the balmy conditions, there's no time for despair. Some slopes will shut down, while others continue to welcome skiers, offering one final push before the season comes to an end.
The Fichtelberg ski resort in the Ore Mountains has announced that its main slope will be closed starting Sunday. However, they're holding on strong with the vintage ski race still on schedule for Saturday. Fortunately, slopes 9 and the Himmelsleiter lift will keep spinning, according to recent reports.
In neighboring Altenberg, the lifts have already gone silent, yet they plan to resurrect them for skiers over the weekend. Meanwhile, the Eibenstock slope will keep its doors open until the weekend as well.
